Adapt Framework

The Adapt Framework is a toolkit for creating responsive, single-version HTML5 eLearning courses for delivery on a web server or SCORM-compliant learning management system.

Adapt v2.0 is a major release offering both performance improvements to existing features and significant new functionality. The core bundle now includes greatly improved assessments, accessibility, theming and plugins.

The framework is free and open source and has been designed with developers in mind. Non technical users can use the Adapt authoring tool to create eLearning courses without writing any code.

The Adapt Framework was built for eLearning and has core features like tracking completion status and assessments.

Depending on your requirements, there are two different ways you can get hold of the framework code:

If you want the latest stable release, tested and ready for development, but don’t care about updating the core framework in the future, we recommend you use our command-line tool which automates the install. You can also grab a .zip of the code straight from GitHub.

If you want to pull in the latest features and fixes as you develop your course, we recommend you clone the repository using git (note: this method isn’t for the fainthearted; things may break!).

The roadmap below gives you an idea of the upcoming features for the Adapt framework in the immediate future.

N.b. As an open-source project, we rely on time ‘donations’ from project collaborators (which are inconsistent from one week to the next for obvious reasons). Because of this, we choose not to publish any specific release schedules, as these are highly likely to be inaccurate. If there’s a feature you require urgently, we would be very grateful for any developer-resource you are able to spare for our cause.
